Read in a day, roughly 10hrs, (a new record for me, with a first time read). This book is super entertaining and a fast read, I read it In pretty much 3 sittings. All the chapters follow on like a movie there’s really no page you can put the book down on. The characters are extremely loveable and the plot intriguing

An amazing book I love this series so far can’t wait to continue the series and see what happens next especially with that cliffhanger which I’ll admit I thought was going to happen but still I need to know what happens next

Fun read, definitely looking forward to continuing the series. It's a YA book, but the writing seemed more middle-grade. The mystery was interesting and I was keen to find out the ending but I felt that most of the mystery was pushed to the next book in the series and the book didn't have a satisfactory conclusion. The main questions of the story were left unanswered, and I disliked that. It was a page-turner but it didn't leave me satisfied at the end.
The Hawthorne family dynamics are screwed up, and the sexual ethics in the story aren't there. A side character's creative use of words similar to curse words kept the book clean from cursing (i think) but the creativity was very thinly veiled.

Wat een lekker verhaal. Het is heerlijk geschreven (en vertaald), met een continue opbouw in spanning. Op het einde nog een cliffhanger waardoor ik meteen door wil lezen.
Enige minpuntje was dat de love triangle een beetje onnodig was.
